Latest News: RUNNING WITH RIFLES Beta 0.87

Hey there!
RWR 0.87 continues on the path of extending support in multiple development areas, see the full change log. We've now got our second radio call request type in addition to the good old mortar strike: paratrooper reinforcements! This one will certainly help to organize those surprise attacks against the less defended enemy bases away from the main battle area, and thus actually succeed in capturing them too. Just watch out for enemy comms truck, it'll jam your radio :P
Another highlight in 0.87 is the tank: two gunner seats, one with MG and the other with rocket shooting cannon, with tracked steering. We haven't polluted all the maps with this beast in fear of it being overly overpowered, but we'll see how it ends up being. At least on InvasionUS yesterday, a few of us happened to start the invasion from Suburbs, blessing us with the tank, but we still had to fight hard the swarming Greys coming at us. The havoc was awesome, but in the end we certainly took a beating that time :D
We've also added cargo trucks here and there in Invasion, the main objective outline being to locate the enemy cargo truck, steal and deliver it safe near an armory at a friendly base. Great thing is that it's handled as a server side script module, allowing us to tweak it on the fly without client side updates required from players.
Beneath the hood, the battle system has gone through some nice upgrades, basically allowing more than 2 factions in battles now. We've yet to set everything up so that it would be easy to choose the faction setup in the UI, and actually we don't have assets other than Green and Greys at this point, but we should come around to it sooner than later. In the meantime it should be possible to use the skin mods and set those battles up manually, would love to hear about it if someone gets to try it!

This is a great game. I've described it to friends as a combination between General Chaos, Cannon Fodder, a rather obscure but innovative game called Net War and once vehicles are added, even a touch of Warhawk. On top of all of this, the developer is great and really listens to the community.

Hello!
This game is awesome. 10 of 10 for sure.
But I have one small question - how to save single player game ?
When I play I often see messages "Game saved" but when I quit game & start it again - there in no saves. Why ?
Hi Ed and welcome! :)
Try "continue recent game" maybe? ;)
cheers
Good morning.
Of course I tried "Continue recent game". =)
I solve the problem with creating "savegame" folder in rwr root directory.
Saves now working - but this is strange - "savegame" folder is empty but my save exists - what the ? )
Is this Linux or Windows, demo or game?
Linux + game, the saves are stored in user home folder under .running_with_rifles/savegames/map*.
Linux + demo, the saves are in your_rwr_folder/data/savegames/map*.
Windows + game, the saves are at C:\ProgramData\Running with rifles\savegames\map*.
Windows + demo, the saves are at C:\ProgramData\Running with rifles demo\savegames\map*.
In Windows, we've heard of some inconsistent behavior regarding savegames with non-admin user accounts, we'll try to address that soonish.
Good evening.
Using full windows version 0.81 . My OS win7 , uac is off & I'm full admin of my computer.
Yes, there is my saves at C:\ProgramData\Running with rifles\savegames\map .
But game doesn't save if there is no "savegames" folder in rwr root directory. I checked it twice.
If u need me as a test subject - I'm at u'r service.
Best
Thanks :) I don't have savegames folder in my RWR installation folder, but the game is certainly saving ok.
Could you send me rwr_game.log (found in C:\ProgramData\Running with rifles\) from a run where the games are not properly saved? The address to send it to would be pasi.kainiemi@modulaatio.com.
Cheers
Log is on its way. :)
I think the last saved game appears immediately when you start the game. Hit escape in the menu and you're straight back in the last saved action. I have not tested this, but I believe that it is so ... maybe ..
Not sure, but everytime i enter the game from the menu i'm back on that damn brigde that i'm unable to cross :-)
When you launch RWR, it just starts a default quick battle behind the menu; this match isn't actually loadable in the recent games.
To get a proper match going on that actually gets saved and can later be found in recent games, go through the start new game menu.
That's it. Thank you.^^
